Asylum Street Spankers &
The Wiyos

Washboards & Wackiness

Sunday, July 27, 2008
7:30pm - $19.50*
THEATER MEMBERS - $10.00

Recommended Age 18+

Rolling Stone called what they do "inspired, lunatic brilliance". Jazz Review describes them as "an audacious, genre-defying national treasure!" The Asylum Street Spankers are masters of dozens of instruments, adept arrangers and songwriters. They're also brilliant interpreters of Golden Age Americana, spiced with right-on influences from their own era, performed with a ripping sense of humor, often with pointed social and cultural commentary, that creates unbridled fun and merriment. Defiantly acoustic, fiercely independent and absurdly good, the Spankers are an internationally reknowned underground institution.

You'll be charmed & amused with the exuberant old-Timey American music of The Wiyos. Inspired by the early American musical idioms of the '20s & '30s, they subvert genre distinctions with their unique instrumentation & harmonies. The Wiyos create a visual spectacle in the tradition of vaudeville-esque performers with on-stage physical comedy recalling the silent films of Laurel & Hardy, Keaton and Chaplin.

Gallagher

Gallagher's "Non-Sledge" Show

Great comedy without the mess.

Saturday, August 9, 2008
6:00pm - "Non-Sledge" show
9:00pm - "Sledge" show SOLD OUT!!
$35.00*

6:00pm SHOW JUST ADDED!!!

Gallagher's "no sledge" show incorporates intelligent social and political commentary as only he can deliver. Add to this a plethora of oddball props and you have the ingredients of one of the most calculating performers in the entertainment world. More than any other comic, Gallagher is best known for his 16 audacious cable specials with titles like "Uncensored Evening", Too Real", "Mad As Hell", "Totally New", "That's Stupid", "Stuck in the 60's", "The Maddest", "The Bookkeeper", "Over Your Head", "Overboard", "The Leap Year Marathon" "Melon Crazy", and "We Need a Hero". Fans always get more than their money's worth, Gallagher gives 110%, posing for pictures and signing autographs. Flash photography is allowed and encouraged!

Best known for wielding his trademark Sledge-O-Matic, Gallagher showers his audience with pulverized remains of various items (edible & otherwise) especially watermelon. If you want to sit in the Splatt Zone - cabaret through first half of theater – show up Gallagherized with protection, such as plastic sheeting, raincoats, goggles, sunglasses & windshield wipers. Gallagher's comedy is much more than outrageous stunts & hilarious props as he's a keen observer of human nature & the American scene and has been featured on several Showtime Specials now shown on Comedy Central.

We strongly suggest sitting in the back half of the theater unless you want to get spewed; 18+ recommended for adult content and flash photography is permitted (although we're not responsible for camera damage)
